More classy Occupy behavior
In Portand, a man uses his toddler as a human shield while he heckles th police;
From The Smoking Gun, an Occupier in Florida helped himself to his neighbor’s patio furniture to facilitate his own comfort at the occupation.
On Wall Street, schoolchildren had to shove their way through ill-mannered Occupiers to get to their elementary school yesterday;
CBS 2’s Emily Smith found little school kids trying to get to class. Nervous parents led them through the barriers on Wall Street. The NYPD helped funnel the children, anything to ease their fears while some protestors chanted “follow those kids!”
“These guys are terrorists, yelling at little kids,” one father said.
The LA Times reports, jn a link sent us by Tman, that businesses in the area of Occupy LA are suffering because their merchandise is growing legs and walking out the door. But listen to how Occupy leadership mitigates their shoplifting thugs;
“Compare [the shoplifting] with the theft of homes by huge banks and I think we have a bit of context,” said Mark Lipman, a protester from Mar Vista.
Yes, they ignore what their mothers told them and hang their hats on “two ‘wrongs’ do indeed make a ‘right'”. Abbie Hoffman would be so proud.

Are you shitting me? I WISH I had the kind of money it takes to live there. Fuck your context, Mark. You’re just justifying criminal behavior.
Oh, and anyone who’s curious, that is the area my ex works. Good luck finding a SFR not in total shit condition over 1000 square feet for under a half-million.
“Abbie Hoffman would be so proud.”
We know Bill Ayers is.
“We know Bill Ayers is.” Not to mention Moron/.03.
“…they ignore what their mothers told them…
That assumes their mothers and grandmothers aren’t living vicariously through them, or working 2-3 jobs to pay kiddoe’s bills.
Here’s the context: the OWS is committing crime: actions that are against the law. The banks are acting (for the most part) within the law. Don’t like the law? Take it up with Joe Biden, Barney Frank, and Chris Dodd.
At least they are exactly like the Tea Party, right? Except for that one little fact that when a single bad apple was found in the Tea Party (even if they were a plant) it was the entire Tea Party that was bad. Now, when a whole shit-load of bad apples are found in OWS, they are individual bad people and not associated with OWS.
That just makes me sick, I am actually physically ill watching this guy. He knows that something bad could happen so he has a child in his lap. Right or wrong don’t try to use your kid as a human shield.
That assmaggot is a coward. A craven, worthless coward, no different from the cretins who cover their faces with bandanas or masks at these events.
Anyone who uses a child for self defense, who or feels the need to mask his identity in public is less than a man, and warrants no place in our society.
If you truly believe in the rightness of your cause, then stand your ground like a man, like a citizen. Otherwise, bugger off back to whatever rock you live under and leave the rest of society alone.
I knew that these people were dirtbags, but this just makes it really strike how bad they are. If I were there and some asshat showed up with his kid like that I would have said go home asshole, you are making us all look bad. Of course, whats next? Some of us have seen it and of course anybody in support of the ows crowd will deny it, but is only gets worse…
I think the Irony is lost on them that, they keep trying to shame other people for doing their jobs, when they have neither jobs nor shame.
